Misogyny and Other Monsters: GWL DnD Games, Saturday 17th June, Saturday 15th July, Saturday 19th August, 1pm to 4pm, GWL, Free, Women only 

On the eastern edge of the city state of Glasgu – a place where your neighbour is as likely to be an elf as a human, and the university teaches magic not science – sits the Glasgu Women’s Library. With rumours circulating of enchanted cattle and strange occurrences at a nearby inn, the Library needs volunteers to investigate.

Dungeons and Dragons is a fantasy roleplaying game which combines collaborative storytelling and improvisation with the randomness of dice rolls. Misogyny and Other Monsters uses the tools and techniques of a standard DnD game but centres the story around women’s history in Glasgow.

Dungeon Matron Becky has written this adventure with beginners in mind but all experience levels welcome. Resources will be provided, including player characters, so you can take your pick and play will start right away.

These are standalone sessions, each will begin with the same adventure so you’re invited to book for the date that best suits you.
